Updated the the weatherflash with blitz.zip on Quaketastic with sound and scattered light.

Although the framecycle for the sprite is 15,
in game it appears 17-32-47.
So there's a delay of 2 sec.

Trying to use progsref for adding a flash fails going out of pattern.
I think it's because the static entity is apart of the game engine.

Thanks for support, Preach! 

Quaketree - no bandwidth, it was hosted on PlanetQuake, so it took me time to do but no ���. No favouritism either, I didn't know who any mapper was. Just a straightforward desire to promote mapping that was equalling or improving what Id had done. It was a long time ago and I probably went about it in a fairly crude or tactless way but my motives were pure. 

Mechtech - Titan1 looks great, nice strong designs and funky details. I agree the frilly stuff is a bit frilly, I also think some textures could be toned down, but keep this one going for sure.
Titan2 is not my style, it looks like HL1 in the Quake engine. I can see some designs and ideas are cool but I think the style needs to be made more harmonious with Quake and it's monsters.

RingOfQD. Nicely detailed but please just go ahead and make a map!! 

...and this is what i have so far

Those that have downloaded the test map. Let me know if it works. If anything is broken, if it crashes. The textures, lighting and layout are done. I am interested in game play breaking bugs. If it's done I'll finish the second map and be DONE.
The whole thing started with this level from Duke3d.

That was amazing back in the 1996

Is this a Doom or Doom II wad? 

 

nothing better than the double shotty 

Greetings,

This will be my first public release, titled DARK CITY. It is intended to be a non-linear survival horror experience.

Beta to follow in coming weeks, time permitted. 

Screenshots are a bit bright and washed out. Maybe tone down the lighting a bit?? 

But at least the map is true to its name. 

must need to change my monitor setting or something. 

Screenshots you take in game will always look stupidly darker when viewed later. Increasing the contrast and brigthness by about 15-20 tends to fix that. 

 

I should take both possibilities, that the map is too dark and that the screenshots are a misrepresentation, into consideration.

However, I might explain further that part of the non-linearity of the map stems partially from the need for players to activate electrical generators that turn on lights to reveal new areas. So in many cases I have to make sure that the light is dark enough that the player will not see or be able to access those areas until the have toggle the appropriate lighting. Perhaps this makes screenshots a bad way to go, lol. 

For brightness, just make a histogram of the screenshots, better than eyeballing it.

Though it will always be ridiculously dark, cause it's Quake. 

I'll try that. I also started using fade multipliers. Here I've tried extended the geometry and added ambient light:

look fine to me.

nitin

Different gamma settings probably. They look fine to me too on Linux with a sRGB monitor. 

same here. also the last shot looks awesome. city map with metal textures?? yes please! 

Metal map plox? https://www.quaddicted.com/_media/pipeline/blackrock1.jpg 

I still have it at about 70% done. Unfortunately, I had it tested and it needs a lot more work to smooth out gameplay and it hasn't been detailed at all.
